Radio Highlights Metro's Garbage Contribution

by Ilsa Perse
Carl Wolfson, host of 620 KPOJ AM's morning talk show, interviewed dump neighbor and activist Ramsey McPhillips and Pink Martini luminary Thomas Lauderdale about the damage Riverbend Landfill is to doing to Yamhill County.  The show, which aired on September 13th, also promoted Pink Martini's highly successful benefit concert for the Stop the Dump Coalition.

This is the first time there has been such a thorough airing of the issues to a large listening audience.  Wolfson found the discussion interesting enough to ask McPhillips and Lauderdale to stay on the show for a longer-than-scheduled interview in order to continue the conversation.

Even though the concert is over, Thomas Lauderdale continues to spread the word to residents, businesses, and officials in Portland and the Metro area about problems at Riverbend.  Hopefully, Wolfson will also continue to inform his audience about the serious issues a landfill on prime farmland on a river poses for western Oregon.  Contact Wolfson at carlwolfson.com to request more information!
